What do British farms produce?

Some grow crops like wheat, barley and corn, whilst other grow tasty vegetables like potatoes, spinach, carrots and beetroot, or scrumptious fruit like apples, pears and strawberries.

Whatever the type of farmer, they all need to make sure they pick their crops at the right time and get them as quickly as possible to the shop shelves for you to buy.

When you’re in the countryside, you’ll also see lots animals too – especially cows and sheep. Farmers keep cows for their milk and also for beef. They breed sheep for their wool and for lamb for us to eat. You’ll also see pigs that are kept for bacon and to make yummy pork sausages!

And of course, we can’t forget the chicken! Lots of farmers keep chickens, which lay a staggering 30 million eggs for us every day! Chicken is also one of our most popular meats.
